Kauppila dropped the puck off to Hamblet, who buried a shot past Air Force goalie Zach LaRocque to give Bentley a 1-0 lead.

Air Force though responded a little over a minute later on a goal by senior Evan Giesler to the score 1-1 going into the second period.

Air Force got the only goal of the second period, from junior Matt Pulver at the 8:42 mark.

Air Force turned its lead into a two goal cushion 5:35 into the third period after a goal by freshman Kieran Durgan. An empty net goal by Kyle Haak with 52 seconds left finished the scoring.

The win is the 5^th in a row for Air Force. Bentley will return home to face Army West Point at Bentley Arena next weekend.
